Plan your trip to Greenland

Amazing experience! Lots of time in the water.

The “Catch N Eat” experience in Greenland is more than a tourist activity—it is a profound cultural and ecological immersion that embodies the intersection of Indigenous knowledge, sustainable living, and cross-cultural connection. From the moment we set out on the frigid yet crystalline waters, our small group of eager participants was invited not only to witness but to partake in a tradition as old as the Arctic coastlines themselves: fishing for survival, for sustenance, and for shared memory.

The catch—healthy specimens of cod and vibrant ocean perch—was abundant and exhilarating to reel in. These moments, filled with laughter, encouragement, and gentle competition, reflected the deeply human joy of harvesting one’s own food. Yet what elevated this outing into the realm of scholarly significance was the shoreline demonstration that followed. There, an experienced local fisher expertly filleted our catch in front of a rapt audience, narrating the process with insight rooted in generations of lived experience. It was a tactile education in anatomy, resourcefulness, and respect for the land and sea.

The walk from the shore to the seaside “tester aunt” (tasting tent) was as breathtaking as it was symbolic—a literal and metaphorical journey from nature’s raw offering to communal nourishment. The landscape was a textbook of glacial geology and Arctic flora, while the social environment was a case study in emergent kinship. Newfound friendships were forged not through convenience but through shared awe, and gratitude.

This excursion merits academic attention as a model for experiential, land-based learning. It holds potential as a pedagogical template for sustainable tourism, intergenerational teaching, and the preservation of Arctic lifeways. In short, Catch N Eat is not simply a tour—it is a living classroom.

Puffin Island Excursion – A Journey Worth Every Feathered Moment

To anyone who doubts the magic of visiting Puffin Island off the coast of Greenland—I must respectfully disagree. This wasn’t just a sightseeing trip. It was a life-affirming experience, shared with an incredible crew and fellow guests who brought curiosity, warmth, and humor to every moment.

The migratory birds—especially the puffins—were nothing short of awe-inspiring. Watching them dive, soar, and nest in the rugged cliffs was like witnessing a choreographed ballet, one only nature could compose. Some might say, “It’s just birds.” But if you’ve ever seen thousands of wings slicing through Arctic wind beneath a golden sky, you’d know it’s never just birds.

Our crew’s deep knowledge and respect for the environment elevated the journey, offering stories and insight that brought the landscape to life. Every detail, from the smooth navigation across the Labrador Sea to the shared meals and laughter on deck, made it unforgettable.

So to the skeptics—I say go. Let the wind tangle your hair, let the silence of the sea humble you, and let the puffins show you why this island deserves your wonder.

Knowledgeable guide and captain. The hike was good, lots of mosquitoes as the day progressed. Beautiful views and lots of ice.

I am glad I did this, but there was not a lot guiding. The guide arrived late for the start. The equipment was not very recent. The participants were not on a similar level, they have to take care of this problem somehow. Two of us handled the kayaking, from the other two one gave up after 2 minutes, the other held us back very much. So two of us paddled away on our own, which is not too safe after all.
Could have just rented kayaks for less.

It was ok for me. My partner liked it a lot.

The guide Miilu was outstanding. We saw fabulous icebergs, the most beautiful jagged mountains, and the peace , quiet and fresh air was just fabulous.

The ice fjord trip was one of the highlights of our five days in Nuuk. Beyond the awesome beauty of the fjord with its towering snow-covered mountains and the thrill of seeing thousands of icebergs of different kinds, both our captain and guide were warm, friendly, and engaging. One of the best parts of the trip was our guide reaching into the sea with a net and extracting a beautifully clear piece of 10,000 year old ice and cracking that ice for drinks. Our captain also performed a very old, traditional East Greenland song for us as we floated amongst the icebergs in this stunning setting of mountains, sea, and ice. We were also lucky to see a whale quite nearby. This excursion is a must for anyone visiting Nuuk.

I had a great experience working through Guide to Greenland. All of my tours were terrific.

Absolutely amazing. The icebergs were incredible, and our captain expertly navigated a way amongst them. Was able to ask lots of questions from the guide.

Highly recommend. Our guide was very knowledgeable and made us felt at ease. Seeing the icebergs from the water level gives a different perspective. Even had a great cuppa tea and biscuit on the water!
Thank you for a great trip.

This was a great tour and the guide was lovely, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Kangerlussuaq is very small but has a lot of hidden history and it is interesting how a such a remote town survives.
Strongly recommend the tour.

Gorgeous trip. A great guide, knowledgeable and well informed. Also so friendly! All their guides are, in fact. Highly recommended.

Wow,wow and wow! One of the natural wonders. Ours was a summer midnight sail, with bright sunshine. The young local guide was excellent. The skillful captain great as well. Well organized, full use of the time. Spot on perfect!
